One thing is clear: energy is prosperity. We have the opportunity to deploy climate tech solutions on a massive scale, securing a clean energy future for all of us.

Clean tech can scale when innovators have capital, testbeds, & partners—just look at Singapore’s CRecTech, backed by Breakthrough Energy Fellows–SEA, launched in partnership with Enterprise Singapore and @Temasek. Now it’s your turn. Applications for Cohort 6 close Mon, Nov 10.

Great news, everybody! The "Donorcracy" book is in its final stages of development and will soon be produced. Share this post if you're interested in getting the earliest copy. We'll contact you once it's ready.

When @BillGates started Breakthrough Energy, the world needed clean energy solutions that were inexpensive—and didn’t exist yet. From day one, we’ve backed the builders turning those ideas into reality—and we’ll keep going until affordable, reliable, clean energy is accessible

Innovation isn’t just possible—it’s investable and it’s already driving progress. Get the sharp take on energy tech, markets, and momentum in Breaking Through, our new newsletter:

At @Caltech, @BillGates visited labs and met with researchers developing the next generation of clean technologies—and shared one of the reasons why he’s optimistic about climate: innovation works. At Breakthrough Energy, we’re scaling those innovations—driving the Green Premium

Industrial heat, reimagined. @rondoenergy, EDP, and @Heineken are deploying a 100 MWh heat battery in Lisbon—the largest in the beverage industry. Backed by Breakthrough Energy and @EIB, it will deliver 24-hour, zero-carbon steam and eliminate 6,600 tons of CO2 a year. Clean

The next decade will define how fast these solutions scale—and how widely prosperity spreads. Innovation works. Capital accelerates it. This is how we make clean energy not just possible—but inevitable. As these companies grow and become profitable, clean energy everywhere

Progress looks like this: ▪️Next-gen nuclear under construction ▪️Clean hydrogen and zero-carbon fuels advancing fast ▪️Low-carbon cement and steel reaching commercial scale The 120+ portfolio companies we back at Breakthrough Energy are turning these into investable industries.

Energy demand will more than double by 2050—and that’s not failure. More energy means more growth, jobs, and opportunity. The challenge: meet that demand with clean, reliable, affordable power for everyone.

Your entire digital future, resting on a single phrase? What if there's a better way? Our new demo of @OasisVaultio explores moving beyond seed phrases with a 2-of-3 model and a 7-day recovery delay, as well as inheritance planning directly in your wallet. See how here:

In just 10 years, innovation has cut projected future emissions by 40%. That didn’t happen by chance. It came from breakthroughs in electricity, manufacturing, and agriculture—and the people building them.

The world is making faster progress on climate and energy than most people think. Clean tech is scaling. Costs are falling. The path to affordable, reliable, clean energy is clearer than ever. In our founder @BillGates' new essay, Three Tough Truths About Climate, he explains

Turning possibility into progress—that’s what the Breakthrough Energy Fellows program does. When Stwart Peña Feliz joined as a Fellow, he set out to make recycled plastic as affordable and high-quality as new. Two years later, MacroCycle uses 80% less energy than traditional

Old batteries, new advantage. @RedwoodMat just raised $350M to expand US recycling and grid-scale storage—turning lithium, nickel, cobalt, and copper into the backbone of an AI-powered economy. Closing loops. Cutting costs. Powering growth. https://t.co/pQbMbxTE9h

Manufacturing jobs, made in Detroit. @luxwall_inc is opening a 276,000-sq-ft facility in the city’s Delray neighborhood—creating nearly 300 manufacturing jobs. Its vacuum-insulating technology, Enthermal, is 5x more efficient than standard windows—cutting energy loss and costs.

HOT TAKE: This Simpsons season is one of the BEST seasons in a LONG TIME but everyone loves hating... 🥲

“Everyone talks about how much energy AI is going to use, but AI can actually help the energy equation on the supply side too.” @CFS_energy and @GoogleDeepMind are teaming up to use AI to speed fusion energy development—turning a long-term vision into a near-term reality.

Butter without animals or plants. Savor and founders @salmon_mckay and Kathleen Alexander are using century-old science to reimagine how we make essential ingredients—cleaner, smarter, and just as delicious. A taste of what a more abundant, resilient food system could look

Big ideas need room to grow. Applications are open for Cohort 6 of Breakthrough Energy Fellows—our program backing the scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs turning early-stage climate tech into real-world impact. Funding. Mentorship. A global network. Now it’s your turn.

“We like to fund projects that derisk technology and move it up the curve,” says Mario Fernandez. That’s exactly what we’re doing with Electra, supporting its first low-carbon iron demonstration plant in Colorado with a $50M grant and partners like @NucorCorp and @Meta.

We put the first mansion on base network

Rondo Energy just turned on the world’s largest industrial heat battery in California. Powered by solar, @rondoenergy delivers dependable 24/7 heat for industry—cutting costs, replacing natural gas, and avoiding 13,000 tons of CO2 every year. It’s a noteworthy example of how

From pilot to production. @Lilac_Solutions is scaling lithium extraction that slashes water use and land impact—while doubling U.S. supply. A major step forward for critical minerals and clean energy competitiveness.
